Louisiana

By E. L. Maxwell

The work in Louisiana is onward. We have but two hundred eighty members, yet, with some assistance from the North, we have been able to keep two tent companies in the field for nearly two years.

As the needs of the neglected South have been pressed home to us, we have sometimes felt that the work could not be done before Jesus comes, but God has raised up men and means to carry it forward, and we believe that he will still supply all our need.

The recent storm, which extended all over the South, damaged our two field tents beyond repair. We shall continue to use what is left of them to finish the meetings already begun, but they can hardly be pitched again. This leaves us without meeting tents for another season.

Good results have attended the efforts put forth thus far. Since the close of our camp-meeting, August 1, thirty-three have decided to keep all the commandments. We are praying that they may continue faithful. We need your prayers. E. L. Maxwell.
